The Naviara Approach
Naviara was founded to serve the need for strategic advisory in the rapidly evolving energy and decarbonization space.
Having sat on both sides of the table - in project development, IPP and EPC roles - as well as on behalf of buyers, procurers and investors to evaluate and contract projects - we have unique insights into this complex space.
Whether you are a project developer aiming to enhance bankability, seek investors and project partners and close deals - or whether you are a corporate offtaker aiming to develop and update your energy plan and procure projects - we can support you to achieve your goals.
